Part Number: 81964200520
Description:
This listing is for a genuine MAN air filter hose bellows, OEM reference 81.96420-0520 / 81964200520. It is used in the engine air intake system between the air filter housing and the intake duct on MAN TGL, TGM, TGS and TGX trucks (approx. 2005–2021, Euro 5 and Euro 6 engines). The flexible rubber bellows design allows movement between cab and chassis while maintaining a sealed air path from the air filter to the engine. Multiple online catalogues and Autoline listings identify 81.96420-0520 / 81964200520 as AIR FILTER HOSE / AIR INTAKE HOSE / BELLOWS for MAN commercial vehicles.
The part offered is an original MAN component manufactured in Germany and removed from a running vehicle. Before dismantling, the engine intake system was checked and there were no air leaks or fault codes related to this hose. After removal the bellows was visually inspected; the rubber remains flexible with no visible cracks through the wall, and the sealing edges on both ends are intact. Two used metal band clamps are supplied with the hose, providing a ready-to-fit solution.

Please always match the OEM part number 81.96420-0520 / 81964200520 (or associated numbers 81082010549 / 81.08201-0549) with your existing hose or consult your MAN dealer with the vehicle VIN to confirm suitability before purchase.
Condition Details:
This is a used part, graded B. The rubber body shows typical external wear, light dirt and minor cosmetic marks from service use. No through-cracks, splits or previous repairs are visible. The sealing flanges are in good shape. The included metal band clamps have visible rust and discolouration but still operate and can be reused or replaced according to buyer preference. The hose has been surface-cleaned only; internal surfaces may show normal dust traces from the air filter. Structurally the item is sound and ready to install.
Installation Notes:
Professional fitting is recommended. Ensure both mating surfaces are clean and free from sharp edges before installation. Position the bellows without excessive twist, then tighten the clamps evenly to the manufacturer’s torque recommendation to avoid deforming the hose. After installation, perform a smoke test or diagnostic check if possible to verify there are no intake air leaks.

As a used component, cosmetic wear, light corrosion on clamps and minor staining are expected and not covered as defects. We accept returns within 30 days of delivery if the item is returned in the same condition and security markings are intact.
